2015-2016 Season Ticket Brochure

PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) Basketball Season Tickets are now on sale for the 2015-16 season and with the renewed excitement, the Hawk faithful have a great opportunity to not only get their ticket early, but to hand-pick their very seat.

At Hawk Hysteria, on Friday, October 16, UMES will host visitors from parents and alumni weekend, as well as many members of the community. Taking advantage of our many guests, the Hawks will host their first ever `Pick Your Seat Day,' where fans purchase their season ticket on site, choose their actual seat for the season and receive a free gift for buying early! With the addition of the new Courtside Club, season ticket holders can decide where they want to be for all the action, up close and personal or, have a Bird's Eye View, elevated in the reserved seating areas.

Parents, alumni, friends and supports are encouraged to come out to the Hytche Center between noon and 8:00 p.m. to choose their seat for their season ticket. Pay for it with cash, check or credit card at that same time, and get a one-of-a-kind gift from Athletics.

For just $125.00, fans can see all 11 men's and 16 women's home games this season. That is 27 games for less than $5.00 per contest, which includes Homecoming on February 20, 2016. Coming off of the heels of the best women's basketball season in school history and the best men's season in over four decades, Hawk Pride is alive and well in Princess Anne and there is no better time to show your support for Hawk Nation!

This year, UMES has added new plans to the mix, allowing fans the best experiences possible. The standard season ticket cost has held steady at $125.00, which includes admission to all 27 games of men's and women's basketball and a reserved chair-back seat, complete with your name, showing everyone you support the Hawks.

New this year are the a la carte items, which include the following options: For just $50.00 more, $175.00 total, fans can add the Hawk's Nest Hospitality, where they can enjoy a catered meal every game in the soon to be newly renovated VIP lounge. For an additional $50.00, Hawk season ticket holders can add the 2016 MEAC Championship pass to their ticket, getting over a 60% discount off of the standard price!

But even more exciting is the addition of court-side seating. Fans can now join the Courtside Club. The most prideful Hawk fans can enjoy the game in comfort and up close to the action in their own executive chair! Sit on the sideline or baseline, get Hawk's Nest Hospitality all season long and a complimentary 2016 MEAC Championship pass for just $500.00! The pass also includes a Courtside Club gift, a free snack, drink and half-time stats, all delivered to your seat each game! This is the place to be for each dunk, three-point shot and Hawks' victory this season. Courtside Club members will also be invited to one of a kind pre-game chalk-talks and meet & greets with the team and coaches!

Of course fans who buy season tickets and can't make every game can donate their tickets to area children, seniors, military or first responders by letting the UMES ticket office know in advance.

Fans who can't make it out to the `Pick Your Seat Day' can purchase season tickets from the UMES Ticket Office by calling 410-621-3311 or by visiting umestickets.com and paying online. Fans can also download the brochure on www.umeshawks.com, located on the men's and women's basketball home pages. To request a form to be mailed, fans may call the ticket office.

Again this year is a special deal for fans who attend the MEAC Tournament, held again this season in Norfolk, Va. in March. Fans who purchase a season ticket to UMES can add a single MEAC Tournament Ticket book, good for every game of the event, for just $50.00!

Those who want to only purchase the MEAC Tournament Tickets can do that as well. The cost is 80.00 before January 1, 2016 and 93.00 after that date.
